Victoria 9 HD Intro Bundle not impressed

Got say I am not impressed I pre ordered Victoria 9 HD Intro Bundle. It showed up in my product library this morning, over 7 hours ago. Can I download it NO. Really. Also another thing that really hisses me off. All of the items that are in Victoria 9 HD Intro Bundle I can buy again in the store. NO They don't say I already own them. Get your thit together Daz

    I hope Daz takes to heart the blunder here with the launch.  

    Yes, it's a blunder.  The gaming industry is closely related here with digital content delivered online with pre-order bundles and special promotions.

    In the gaming industry at the very least the people who pre-order are able to download immediately at the time of public release.  Sometimes it's early access (a day, few hours, whatever) or the ability to download hours in advance with the access locked until release time so that it's ready to be played immediately at the official release time.

    Now those of us that have given Daz our money early are forced to wait, while those that just "walk in off of the street" late are able to buy and use V9 now.  It's hard not to feel like a sucker.

  • I am hoping they will make it up to us. crying

  • I wondered if there was an issue on my end. I can see the products that the bundle contains but cannot get to the download page. I wondered if they were only releasing her via DAZ Central, which I do not use.

    I use Daz central, she is not there.

    I'd stayed away from other promos; I was so impressed by the video that I pre-ordered.

    Like that old saying goes:  "Fool me once..."

    Welp, I was fooled indecision

  • It seems a very odd debut for G9!

    Eyebrows of Genesis 9 and genital set of Vicky9 are missing, too. Guess update will be there soon. But I can for sure see that they are not ready to release this huge change today. At least Vicky9 makes me smile. We can't go back to Genesis 8.1 or previous ones anymore. DAZ really nails it at aesthetics this time!

    You all can RETURN all the stuff you are disappointed in, or that may not work for you.

    Not just you...it is an issue for some people who've posted in other threads

    I filed a ticket when I figured out what was going on...Daz always comes through in the end so I'm not worried

    I can still mess around with the base G9 figure and see what from G8 works on it

    How do I download V9 HD Bundle? It isn't showing up on DIM and I can't find any files or details on the individual packages.

    Apparently we have to wait for a fix. Maybe for you too, you'll notice that following the product page of the bundle, the products contained are not marked as "owned".

    If you preordered the bundle, you are screwed at the moment. If you just bought her today, you're in luck. angry (yeah, like an idiot, I preordered).

    Half the DO Male figures don't come with fibermesh eyebrows, getting makeup and bare skin seems like a luxury to me.

    actually everything is in the starter essential, I got it. The technical issues are indeed annoying but I am pretty sure they are working hard to fix it!

    Maybe buying again (for $0) by clicking the red PURCHASED button would get you access?

    I'm not much impressed with the bundle either. Although the set of actionwear is nice.

    I do rather like the figure -- although she seems a bit more distinctly individual than most Victorias (although it seems that PAs are no longer basing their figures on the official named bases so it hardly matters). But since she requires Studio 4.2 and my most recent version is 4.15, I'm in no hurry to add her to my library.

    I will have to say that an introductury bundle which consists of only swimsuits and fetish wear is hardly the best way to encourage people to adopt a new range of figures.

  • Closing this as the download/avaialbility issues are amply discussed in the main thread at the top of the Commons.
